Re: Help with partially fried QMX
From your photos, your soldering looks fine. The fried transistor could be causing that continuity now.? Since you have ordered a new one, you could just remove the current one and see if the short

Power Output
Hi all I have just built and finished my first QMX+ and it worked first time well impressed. Just one question on the power output which I am measuring into a dummy load. On 160m I am getting 7.2w,

Re: QSX project retirement
Hi With all that gain, you can use it for HackRF kind of miliWatt SDR transceivers. Even with U4B baloon Tracker 73 DE muhsin TA1MHS > > >

Re: QMX work with PA
Hi Sergey My QMX works great with 1_01_003 firmware. I've calibrated it and SSB Great! Few problems: In version 1_00_003 the power meter reads peaks. Not averages. Then there is also a hold time. It

Re: Help with partially fried QMX
Stan, Thank you very much for your detailed reply. After trying some of your triage steps, I am observing that the GND, +12V, and VCC all exhibit continuity with each other on the compromised SMP

Re: QMX+ high pitch noise on power. Now dead.
I have rev 2. When I plug in the power it still shows as 12 on the board. It only draws power when I press the power button. [email protected]> wrote:

Re: QMX+ high pitch noise on power. Now dead.
For that TVS diode (right alongside the power connector), the forward 0.6V drop is not the critical thing - it is the reverse breakdown, and I'm not sure if the 'diode test' function of a multimeter

Re: Help with partially fried QMX
The MOSFET would blow from over-current, not over-voltage.? And high current will happen if +5V is somewhere shorted to ground, or Q108 is turned on all the time, which causes zener D108, which is

Re: Help with partially fried QMX
Austin, If your screen lighted up and Q108 blew without you pressing the power-on button, it means you have one or more shorts going on.? That display tab can cause shorts in the power supply, but

Re: QMX+ high pitch noise on power. Now dead.
I just checked the diode and it seems to be fine with a 0.6v drop. [email protected]> wrote:

Hello, I am doing some experiments with the qmx filter sections. E.g. I bridged the BPF and LPF section by a cap. I wanted to test, how flat the sweeps are without any filter. The results are good

Hi Norm > I know about the wattage differences compared with S-meter readings, etc., The probability is certainly non-zero. But I don't have any concrete plans for a 10W QMX+ at the moment. Bear in
